Analog Bits Momentum and a Look to the Future

Analog Bits is aggressively moving to advanced nodes. On SemiWiki, Dan Nenni covered new IP in 3nm at DAC here. I covered the new Analog Bits 3nm IP presented at the TSMC Technology Symposium here. And now, there’s buzz about 2nm IP to be announced at the upcoming TSMC OIP event in September.  I was able to get a briefing from the master… Read More


Spatial audio concepts targeted for earbuds and soundbars

Spatial audio concepts targeted for earbuds and soundbars
by Don Dingee on 08-26-2024 at 10:00 am

Spatial audio concepts differ from traditional surround sound

Spatial audio technologies deliver more realistic sound by manipulating how the listener perceives sounds virtually sourced from different directions and distances in a 3D space. Where traditional surround sound technology uses various sound channels through many speakers positioned around a listener, spatial audio can… Read More

Weebit Nano is at the Epicenter of the ReRAM Revolution

It’s well known that flash is the embedded non-volatile memory (NVM) incumbent technology. As with many technologies, flash is bumping into limits such as power consumption, speed, endurance and cost. It is also not scalable below 28nm. This presents problems for applications such as AI inference engines that require embedded… Read More
